Christ’s Body: How We Miss the We-ness of Us All
Humans are curious creatures. Just as we struggle to get our minds around both the one-ness and the three-ness of the godhead, so we struggle to understand ourselves. We are alone with our thoughts, alone in our skins. We will … Continue reading

What is the theology of glory and the theology of the cross?
We feel an appropriate tension in the relationship between Christians and the world. We serve a Lord who came to bring life abundant (John 10:10), who has overcome the world (John 16:33). Jesus is bringing all things under subjection (Ephesians … Continue reading

The Spirit of Rebellion vs. The Spirit of Wisdom
Though I haven’t the infernal wisdom that C.S. Lewis demonstrated in his classic work The Screwtape Letters, I think I know something about at least some of the devil’s stratagems. The Screwtape Letters, you remember, purported to be a series … Continue reading

Someone is Wrong on the Internet: A Complaint
It takes two to tango, and that doesn’t even include the band. Our choices, our behaviors, are rarely as discreet as we think they are. Not only do our decisions bleed into our other decisions, they touch on other people’s … Continue reading
